Everyone thinks of Ramen noodles as being this disgusting noodle block college kids have to eat because they can't afford anything else. But that's not true. They are a quality food and some college students eat them because they want to, not because they have to. I am about to school you on just a few reasons why we need to get rid of the stigma around Ramen noodles.

1. You can save meal swipes

I didn't go to the dining hall for lunch today because I want to eat Ramen noodles. Because they are warm and delicious. If I had gone to the dining hall I probably would have gotten a salad. It might have been healthier, but now if I feel like eating breakfast sometime this week, I will have an extra meal swipe to do so. And I didn't miss out on anything. Because the Ramen noodles I just ate were really good.

2. You won't die from eating them

Ramen isn't the worst thing for you. Unless you eat super healthy all of the time, you can't really talk about how unhealthy it is. I'm not saying it's healthy, I'm just saying it's not that bad.

3. You save time

They are so simple to make. I can make Ramen noodles in minutes. The convenience of microwaving a block of noodles is really great, but so many people don't understand that. Save some time and eat Ramen noodles sometimes. You can't complain about not having enough time in the day when you spent a long time making a fancy lunch.

4. You can eat them

Nobody is too good for Ramen noodles. You can go ahead and spend lots of money buying regular food you have to make yourself, or you could save some money and eat Ramen every once in a while.

5. They taste really good

I wouldn't bother eating Ramen if it tasted bad. It's not like that is the only option when you need to save money. But it tastes really good, so I consider it a treat.

So if you want to save time, meal swipes, money, and eat something that tastes really good, then you should eat Ramen noodles. You will enjoy them and feel so much better about other aspects of your life, like your bank account and being able to spend more time doing the things you enjoy.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
